UFOs

Hello my name is Carlie and I am a craft-a-holic!!I took off two days last week to go through my 'room' in the basement that had a lotof my crafts that have beendown there for 10 years. Having been referred to asbeing a 'hoarder' by my daughter every timethat I said 'Someday I will make somethingwith that...' I let go of a lot of crafting junk.We had a yard sale and made only enoughto take the whole family but 3 out forall you can eat BBQ.

But I did keep a lot of my UFOs!!As you can see my table is full andthis is only a part!!! Yeah I have it bad!I get excited with new ideas whileI am working on one thing that Iwill stop and start something else.

This ATiskit, A Taskit BOM from Bunny Hillthat I have been working on at lunch and Ionly have 3 more to go!!

Then I started a small basket quilt to workon at lunch!! yeah I'm addicted...

Here is two redwork quilts that I designed...Maybe I will start a freebie BOM withthem so it will get me going to finish them!!

This is another of my designs...a dulcimer quilt.Someday...

This is a stack n' wack quilt that I took aclass on. I did finish the quilt I made withthe scraps!!! But alas this one isn't quiltedyet...

This is two embroideries that I did to makepillows for spring...several springs ago...

This is a king-size quilt that I started and got 80%quilted 11 years ago and then we moved....

My tea pot quilt that is 75% quilted...alsostarted 10 years ago!!!

SOOOOOO...........now what you ask???I am airing my dirty and unfinished laundryso that I will be shamed into getting themfinished....Does this happen to anyone else???I also write and have several booksstarted. It's a illness isn't it???

So I am not going to start anything newuntil I finish at least two UFO's.

Hello Carlie My name is Marjorie and I live in Tenerife, Spain. I have so many UFO's that I have to finish, it's like a sickness but a guess that it isn't a really bad one. Don't worry and keep working.Xoxo, Marjorie
